Trade offs when you talk about bass. These really are special. Every one who reviews this mighty lil’ speaker brags about its out put. Yes it punches above in that regard. I don’t think that this factor should be its selling feature .

How did these do at lower volumes?

Did you have any connectivity issues with the Platin Hub? Did you ever have drop outs?

Great review Michael. I'm sure they sound awesome because they're Buchardt speakers, but what am I to do with my $10,000 speaker cables? LOL

Sub because of the shirt.

Thanks for the video and the t-shirt. I had to get one. The speakers look awesome especially the woofer. Love the shaggy look. Scooby Doo! Wish they had a passive pair. I’ve had bad experiences with powered speakers and have connected with others that have too. I’ll jump back in at that price when they come up with a 5-10 year warranty on electronics. 2-4 year warranties tell you what the company expects and stands behind. They made the speaker- who knows better than them. If you’re an electrician or electrical engineer it may make sense to you. In addition I’m trying to balance my purchases and purchasing power. Buying from both US and outside the US based companies and both brick and mortar stores and online. Think globally and act locally. Rock on!

Those tweeter look like older mirage speakers.

You mentioned that these speakers have Burr-Brown DACs inside of them. I haven't been able to confirm that anywhere else. I did see that a PowerDAC was mentioned to be present in these speakers. Could you please confirm which DAC is inside of these speakers?

Purifi woofers. Still…. It’s a small box

Interesting woofers. Looked them up because the surrounds look strange but I understand their philosophy. Only thing I wonder about is what the longevity of these surrounds will be like; the traditional half-roll surround lasts long provided it isn't one of the dreaded deteriorating foam ones. These mathematically optimised ones _look_ like they are under a lot of mechanical stress as the cone moves back and forth, but looks can be deceiving so they may well be fine in terms of longevity.
